The Geise Research Group recently published a paper that was selected as an American Chemical Society Editors' Choice article. The research features the work of graduate students Hongxi Luo (back row, second from left) and Kevin Chang (back row, far left) along with undergraduate Kevin Bahati (front row, far right), who is an Undergraduate Student Opportunities in Academic Research (USOAR) researcher. The paper, titled “Engineering Selective Desalination Membranes via Molecular Control of Polymer Functional Groups,” describes a strategy for increasing the effectiveness of water desalination by improving membrane selectivity. The approach is based on controlling chemical functional group position within the polymer that is used to make the desalination membrane. Also pictured above are graduate students Saringi Agata (back row, right), YuanYuan Ji (front row, second from left) and Patrick McCormack (front row, second from right), and Prof. Geoff Geise (front row, far left).
